The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.

Li Kaixin rode his bicycle away from the alley entrance and headed straight for courtyard number 94.

In the courtyard, Master He and Lu Chunhua were sitting on small stools, chatting animatedly.

Upon seeing Li Kaixin push the cart in, Master He immediately stood up and went to greet him.

Li Kaixin naturally noticed it too, and said with a smile, "Master He, weren't you supposed to finish yesterday? Why are you here again today?"

"Boss, the work was finished yesterday, but you didn't come to check it. I didn't know if you were satisfied, so I'm waiting here for you to come and take a look today," Master He explained with a smile.

Li Kaixin realized what was happening and felt a little guilty: "Master He, isn't this too much trouble for you? How about I give you some extra pay?"

Before he could finish speaking, he reached into his pocket.

"No need, no need!" Master He quickly refused. "I don't have anything to do today anyway, so I'm just dropping by."

Seeing this, Li Kaixin didn't insist any further.

At this moment, Lu Chunhua also came up with a smile: "Happy, you've finally come."

As he spoke, he handed over the keys he was holding.

"Aunt Lu, thank you." After parking her bicycle, Li Kaixin took the set of keys.

Lu Chunhua's smile deepened: "There's no need to thank me, it's just what I should do."

Li Kaixin opened the door with his key, and a faint smell of freshly painted lime wafted out.

The interior walls have been repainted white and smooth, and the floor has been swept clean, leaving no corner untouched. It is no longer the mess it was yesterday.

This shows that Master He has definitely put his heart into it.

Li Kaixin eagerly entered the house, looked around the two rooms, then turned to Master He beside him and exclaimed, "Master He, your skills are truly superb!"

"Boss, as long as you're satisfied."

Master He smiled simply, "Boss, there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"Wait! Master He." Li Kaixin said, taking out a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes from his pocket and handing it to him.

Master He took the cigarette, his face immediately lighting up with a smile: "Thank you, boss. If you ever need any more work in the future, just let me know, and I'll give you the lowest price."

"Okay, Master He, I'll definitely come back to you next time."

After seeing Master He off, Li Kaixin carefully looked around the two rooms again before riding his bicycle to the Trust Shop.

He has made up his mind to move there today.

Inside the trust shop, clerk Fang and Old Xiao were chatting and joking together.

Shop assistant Fang pulled out the pack of Daqianmen cigarettes that Li Kaixin had given him yesterday from his pocket and waved it in front of Old Xiao: "Old Xiao, it's a real pity you didn't come yesterday, you missed out on this good stuff."

"Xiao Fang, that's not right!" Old Xiao squinted and said half-jokingly, "I'm your senior, shouldn't you offer me this pack of cigarettes as a token of your respect?"

Before he could finish speaking, he snatched the cigarette from in front of him.

"Mr. Xiao, you can't do this!" Shop assistant Fang said anxiously, reaching out to snatch it back.

Old Xiao put the cigarette behind his back and chuckled, "Serves you right for showing off in front of this old man, now you know the consequences, don't you?"

"Mr. Xiao, I was wrong, please give it back to me!" Shop assistant Fang said with a bitter face.

Old Xiao didn't really make things difficult for him. After teasing him a few times, he threw the cigarette back.

Just then, Li Kaixin appeared at the entrance of the trust store.

Mr. Xiao and the shop assistant immediately stopped laughing and joking, their faces beaming with smiles as they quickly went to greet him.

The sales clerk greeted him warmly, "Comrade, you've arrived! I've arranged all the furniture for you and put it all together."

"Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Fang." Li Kaixin nodded with a smile, then looked at Old Xiao and greeted him politely, "Grandpa, you're at work today."

"Yes, young man," Old Xiao replied cheerfully, then asked with concern, "By the way, are you satisfied with the furniture you chose this time?"

"I'm satisfied. Thank you for your trouble." Li Kaixin's smile remained unchanged.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Shop Assistant Fang led Li Kaixin toward the back warehouse.

In the warehouse, the square table, mahogany cabinet, four stools, and two chairs that were bought yesterday were stacked separately to one side.

Li Kaixin stepped forward and touched it with his hand, a smile spreading across his face: "Comrade Fang, did you clean this up?"

He clearly remembers that it was covered in dust when he bought it yesterday.

"Well, I didn't have much to do this morning, so I took out all your furniture and wiped it all down," said Shop assistant Fang, rubbing her hands together and smiling a little embarrassedly.

"Thank you so much, Comrade Fang." Li Kaixin said sincerely, then took out fifty cents from his pocket and handed it over. "You must accept this small token of my appreciation."

"I can't accept this, you're too kind," the shop assistant said, but she reluctantly took it.

He couldn't help but think to himself: Old Xiao is right, this comrade is indeed meticulous.

He only cleaned the furniture that Li Kaixin bought carefully today because he listened to Mr. Xiao's advice; otherwise, the trust store wouldn't offer such an extra service.

The shop assistant carefully put the money away, her smile growing even warmer.

Then, as if remembering something, he slapped his forehead: "Comrade, did you drive here today? Would you like me to help you hail a cart at the street corner?"

Li Kaixin was pondering the transportation matter when he heard Fang bring it up, and he quickly nodded, "That would be too much trouble for you, Comrade Fang. I was just thinking about it."

"No trouble at all, just wait a moment!" said the shop assistant, turning around and jogging out of the store.

Not long after, he returned with a dark-skinned man in his forties.

The man was pushing a sturdy wooden cart with a worn-out hemp rope draped over the handlebars.

"Comrade, this is Master Wang, an experienced handcart puller." Shop assistant Fang introduced him to Li Kaixin first, then turned to Master Wang, "Master Wang, this is the comrade who needs to transport furniture."

Master Wang smiled憨厚ly and stepped forward: "Comrade, don't worry, I'll pull you steadily, I guarantee it will be safe."

"Thank you for your trouble, Master Wang," Li Kaixin replied with a smile.

Seeing that Li Kaixin agreed, Master Wang quickly and efficiently moved the square table, cabinet, stools, and chairs onto the cart one by one.

"All done, comrade." Master Wang wiped his sweat. "Just tell me the destination, and I'll haul it over there for you."

Li Kaixin didn't delay and immediately gave the address of Courtyard No. 94.

The shop assistant, Fang, chimed in, "Mr. Wang, this man is a straightforward person. Please be careful on the road."

"Comrade Fang, don't worry!" Master Wang patted his chest.

Afterwards, Li Kaixin said goodbye to Shop Assistant Fang and Old Xiao, and followed the cart all the way to No. 94 Courtyard.
